F65X

Built with internally and externally butted Superlite aluminum frame, the F65X addresses every need for the cyclocross racer. The frame and fork have maximum clearance for mud shedding, and the bike is equipped with Avid BB5 disc brakes for precise braking in any condition. With a BB30 bottom bracket, ControlTaper headtube, and SRAM components, it all adds up to a quick, lively and durable ’cross bike ready to tackle any course.

This product uses only the highest quality aluminum tubing available, giving our products the optimal blend of strength, weight, performance and value. We form, taper and shape each tube for its particular placement and end-use. These steps result in a lightweight, responsive frame that minimizes rider fatigue and maintains quality.

InsideOut is a revolutionary internally optimized molding process that completely eliminates excess material, and therefore weight, inside the frame tubes and junctions. Placing polyurethane inserts inside the frame during the molding process—especially at the bottom bracket and head tube area—and then applying a precise amount of pressure and heat results in perfectly formed tubes, inside and out.

By using a ControlTaper head tube with 1-1/8” upper bearings and 1-1/2” lower bearings, Felt is able to significantly improve front-end stiffness and steering precision without adding weight to the frameset.
